Picked up my brz a few days ago - and I love it! Obviously doesn't have the same kick in the pants as the WRX but it is certainly very fun to drive. I'll have to reserve my opinion until I've driven it a little more (and driven it a little harder) but so far I'm stoked. I'm not surprised at all by the praise this car is getting from auto journos around the world either (And the criticism too). Its a really fun car to drive but could use a little extra power to pull itself out of the corners.
There is already a very strong aftermarket supply for these cars too, all the typical bits and then some. I guess it helps when half the car is recycled from subaru/toyota/lexus parts. Current cheapest bolt-on turbo kit is about 4kAUD delivered (5psi, ~180kw / 300 Nm).
